Into and 4 weeks pain?

[dojo]

Congratulations and fx for a good draw on Mon! I think a lot of mild pains are completely normal in early pregnancy. It's impossible to stay calm during this time

Congrats! I have PCOS and had a pinching like that with my second child. It was a large cyst. They kept monitoring just to make sure it didn't twist the ovary. It eventually went away on its own. I would mention it to your doctor just to be on the safe side.

Congratulations and good luck!

I had that too. The pinching is like a cyst or something that is formed from implantation and nourishes it, and once the sac is formed, then the cyst goes away. It's normal.

Congrats!!

Congratulations - no pinching per se, but I did have period-like cramps that early on my left side for both my pregnancies.

Sounds normal to me. Congratulations!

Congratulations!

I had cramps that I thought would be my period starting any day around that time as well.

Welcome and congratulations! I just found out I am pregnant too, and I have those same pains right now. This is my third, so even though I know it is totally normal, I still get nervous too. It's so hard not to stress! Good luck!

Congrats and Welcome!!

I definitely had cramping in the early days. It felt like my period and it was annoying. Good luck with your betas!

Welcome and congrats!
As everyone else mentioned, mild cramping can be totally normal in early pregnancy. Don't hesitate to call your doctor though, if it will make you feel better.
I also wouldn't worry about your dirt beta. My first draw was only 79 and my second was only 246, and I'm pregnant with twins!
Fx for a healthy pregnancy.

Congrats!

Cramping is totally normal. I've also heard that there is often twinges/pinching on the side you ovulated from.

Congrats! I'm also about 4 weeks along. With my first I was constantly cramping and feeling like my period was about to start and it seems to be the same this time around. I'm also having occasional brown or pink tinged mucus, which I also had quite a bit with my first. Even knowing it's normal and having gone through it before doesn't completely squash the worry, but it helps a bit to know that it's all pretty common.

Congrats!

Thank you everyone. I feel better knowing that others have felt the same thing.

Congratulations! I've had mild cramping for the last two weeks and from what I understand, it's common.
